The Forbidden City is a treasure of China and a cultural attraction for people all over the world to "punch the clock". However, the Forbidden City, which is known as "nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine and a half rooms", is very knowledgeable to visit. As Shan Jixiang, the sixth director of the Palace Museum, said in the cover recommendation of "Idle and Slow travel of the Forbidden City": "What to see in the Forbidden City, which route to take, do you have such confusion?" ”
Jointly created by the Writers Publishing House and the Forbidden City Publishing House, the full-color illustrated guide book "Leisure and Slow travel to the Forbidden City" has been carefully created over two years, and strives to answer this question perfectly. The author Han Bu, whose real name is Jia Lixin, has been engaged in the work of explaining and guiding for more than 20 years, and is currently the deputy research librarian of the Palace Museum, and has published many works about the Forbidden City. Shan Jixiang's comment on her and this new work is: "Now there is a talented woman who has studied the Forbidden City for twenty years, interpreting the Forbidden City for you in a pictured and textual way. One hall, one room, one instrument and one object, the story inside the red wall tells you. Her Forbidden City will give you a better understanding of the Forbidden City. ”
"Idle and Slow forbidden City" is divided into two volumes. The first volume, "Rui Que Dan Chen", the overview of the Forbidden City and the central axis route; the second volume, "Heavy Jade Masonry", the route on both sides of the central axis, focuses on the six palaces of the East and West. The author divides the entire Forbidden City into several blocks, carefully draws up five different travel routes, indicates the required length of time, and makes a large-scale colored and printed map, which is included in the book. Sensing the blankness of the professional guide books of the Forbidden City on the market, she deliberately distinguishes it from the manual with a single role, focusing on the vivid details of history and culture. The book not only contains the beauty of the ancient buildings of the palace platform, the head of the beast, and the lattice window of the moai, but also contains the beauty of the cultural relics of the jade seal phoenix crown, calligraphy ancient painting, and ceramic bronze. Of course, what is more important is the vicissitudes of the twenty-four emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties who appeared here and ended.
Thirty years of Forbidden City people, combing through the Forbidden City for six hundred years. Every link in the book has been carefully examined and considered. The Palace Museum Publishing House provides a large number of exquisite treasure pictures, literary and artistic style layout arrangement, the gilded cover of the main picture with the Forbidden City building tangle knot belt and the three-cross six-lined diamond flower elements, the lock line through the back barrier-free flat binding, the specially customized inner paper that can present the best color printing effect, with the brilliant finished book, taking into account reading and enjoyment.
